Volunteering

Our charity is dedicated to supporting residents and visitors to the village of Bar Hill in South Cambridgeshire. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to participate in our village community but we can't do it alone. That's why we're looking for passionate individuals like you to join us and make a difference.

As a volunteer with us, whether you're looking to gain new skills, make new friends, or simply give back to your community, we have a variety of volunteer roles and opportunities available. Here are just a few examples:

• Helping local groups to publicise their activities by writing supportive articles for the Bar Hill News

• Fundraising, either by organising something in the village or perhaps nominating us as the charity when you're running a marathon, climbing a mountain, etc!

• Helping organise one of our existing Activities

• Doing something new to benefit the village!

We are a charity with a limited budget but are very willing to provide volunteers with training, support, and resources to ensure that they have the tools they need to succeed. We also totally understand that we all have other commitments in our lives and so we offer flexible scheduling to accommodate as many people as possible.

If you're ready to make a difference and join us as a volunteer, please email volunteering@barhill-ca.org to get started. We'll then setup a meeting either with the Chair of Trustees or another trustee where you express an interest in volunteering in a particular area. 

Thank you for considering volunteering with us. We look forward to working with you to make a positive change in our village.

Our list of existing Activities is available via the drop-down at the top right of this website. If there is a particular activity you'd like to help with then reading the page would be a good place to start - you can always email volunteering@barhill-ca.org or the Trustee who is directly responsible for that activity.

Please get in touch!

Be a part of creating a better future for our village!

We are looking for passionate volunteers who want to contribute their ideas and energy to propose new projects that will benefit our community. In the Community Association, we passionately believe that the best way to make a positive change is by working together to identify and address the needs and aspirations of our village.

As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to propose and develop new projects that will enhance the quality of life for everyone in the community. This could include projects related to health & wellbeing, sports, the environment, or just about anything else you can think of that is tied to our village. 

You'll have the freedom to propose projects that inspire you and align with your interests and skills.

We will provide you with support and guidance throughout the process of proposing and developing your project idea. You'll also have the opportunity to collaborate with other volunteers and community leaders to bring your project to life. Because we have already setup the charity you can benefit from the work we have already done; policies, registering with the Charity Commission, setting up bank accounts, etc. All of this will allow you to focus more on making your idea happen than the admin side of setting up an organisation. Everyone wins!

If you're interested in joining our efforts to create a better future for our village, please email volunteering@barhill-ca.org. If you have any questions or would like more information, please don't hesitate to contact us.
